Ep.153: Federal Parliament Kick Off with Josh Burns

Dunn Street founder and Community Organiser Stephen Donnelly was joined by the freshly re-elected member for MacNamara, Labor’s Josh Burns. Josh joins Stephen to give a brief post election debrief, mainly how the close race for the seat of MacNamara was won and how he correctly predicted Labor winning the seat of Higgins, followed by a recap of the first sitting week of parliament under the Albanese government. Josh unpacks the goings on of the sitting week, including the first speeches from new faces, the key issues brought to parliament, and how the Liberals are acclimatizing to the opposition benches.The presenting sponsor of the Socially Democratic podcast is Dunn Street.
